make sure that what is going on so far is the beginning of the process to expand and to resource these trainings and to prioritize them because they are important and also to recognize the fact that the lgbtq sensitivity trainings don't insure attitudes and behaviors and to access the best practice to make sure that the youth are actually receiving the quality care and one of the ways to do that is by tracking them. how do we know that they are not slipping through the tracks if they are not tracking who they are. and obviously the different people have come up with different concerns for that and i am not a legal genius and i just want to urge that is important. because, youth access and services is already a challenge, and it is already a struggle that the youth go through, so to receive for the youth to actually feel safe receiving the services that we provide as a city and we need to have these best practices created thank you. >> thank you very much.

>> thank you, for summarizing at the end and any other member of the public that would like to comment, come forward and seeing none we will close the public comment. >> and commissioner campos. >> thank you. >> i don't know if you want to you know make some final remarks but one thing that i would say is, i do want to begin by thanking the youth commission and especially commissioner toomuch. it is incredible when you look at the fact that we passed this law in 1999. that there is still no the level of compliance that we want to see. and it is quite amazing that it is the youth people who are basically saying that you are not doing what this law said that you were supposed to do. and i really appreciate all of the departments that have come forward when there are different levels of compliance

and it is impressive to see the things that are happening and certainly the video of dph and i really appreciated the presentation and all of the things that they are doing and that they are going to do and i appreciate that and of course the human. and i think that the main and of course the juvenile probation department and i think that the training that is in here, chief is really impressive and i would love to figure out how to take that on the road with some of these other departments and of course, dcyf who has then a lot of work with the lgbtq community especially youth, and you know, just to recognition that more needs to be done. and i think that the main thing and i would leave it to supervisor avalos and i want to thank you, supervisor for identifying this issue. i do think that we need to come up with a way of overseeing compliance. the 12 n ordinance does not really provide for that.

to include, the body or the hrc or i don't know who, that actually provides a report so that is actually someone that is compiling all of the information because i think that like even though, it is amazing that the departments that came and they are probably the departments out there that need to be looked at but i think that this is one of those things where i think that all of us as adults in the city government have to take responsibility for the fact that we have not done anything that we need to do. and the amazing things going on in these departments and i look forward for your leadership and thank you for your comments. >> i am actually, i really enjoyed hearing this a lot and i have enjoyed the work done by

the departments. and they have gone into and just recently where they need to go and i really appreciate the work of commissioner toomuch and the youth commission over all to bring this to our attention. i think that this check in that we have today, is really going to be instrumental and actually getting and moving forward on making sure that we are in compliance and i do agree that we do need to change 12 n to improve upon it the added compliance process in it as well as a reporting mechanism at the end of each year. and it would really assure that we are meeting our marks on these things. so what i would like to do is speak with the youth commission afterward and develop a plan with the youth commission about how we can move forward legislatively and administratively and getting the departments together as well will be really important, i think that seeing the video, with that meeting would be a really great thing to see and do and think about how they can

use the video for our own training and also to think about how we can make the similar improvements in other departments as well. and so i look forward to moving forward on this with you. i want to see how we can make this happen. >> great, hearing, supervisor yee? >> yeah. thank you avalos for bringing this for the committee. >> and i want to thank everybody who came out to address this hearing. and as we have a knowledge a long ways to go. and we need to, and we need to go on these days and we can actually feel comfortable that we don't need this. but at this point, we are at a state where this is still needed but we need to be aggressive about this and i

concur with my colleagues here that it seems like we need to have a centralized compliance monitoring system for this, and whoever is going to bring this up as a modification of i would be very supportive of this, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> supervisor, do you want to continue this to the call of the chair and bring it back or file this? >> yeah, that is it. >> yeah. so we have a motion to continue, motion by supervisor yee? if we can take that without objection, and again, i want to thank everyone and you know that one of the many great silver linings is that when the youth commissioners take over the world and running the city things will be in much better shape than they are today. >> now, mr. clerk, if you could call item number two, again, thank you supervisor avalos. >> item number two, the hearing to consider the issuance of type 48 on the premises to art

rodreguz doing business as ferrill in district eight >> so we have been joined by supervisor weiner and this is a request that comes from an establishment in district eight and we don't want to lose the quorum and so i apologize in waiting for this. supervisor weiner, do you want to begin? >> yes. thank you mr. chairman. and i am here today in support of the liquor license transfer to this space. this is currently a vacantcy and it was previously a nightclub called trigger which had a lot of problems and a lot of consistent conflicts with the surrounding neighborhood. and it ended up closing down. it has been a vacantcy ever since. and i think that a lot of us

were very concerned when it closed down that this could end up turning into a long-term vacantcy and so a lot of us were very, very happy when the new owners have stepped up to take over the space and to turn it into this. and they own, three on bars in the castro and the edge in the midnight sun, and in each instance when they have taken over the bar they have made the bar better. and they have upgraded it, sometimes fixed code violations, resolved the issues with the surrounding neighbors and made positive changes to all of these establishments. and they also have a long track record of working very well with neighbors and with the community in general, tim is on the board of the video

neighborhood association. and i know that this has project has good support in the neighborhood. and i am a very supportive and i will also note that there is a condition in the liquor license transfer for use of video surveillance, and that is an ongoing discussion that we have been having with the police department and i believe that this language conforms to the department's new approach as opposed to the previous approach which is a little more extreme. i have also spoken to one of the owners and understand that they are supportive of having a video surveillance and i am comfortable with that condition and given that circumstance. >> i do support this, thank you. >> thank you, supervisor weiner and i really appreciate your comments and certainly agree with everything that you said about the applicants. why don't we hear briefly from the applicants just to give you a brief opportunity to say something and again, thank you

for your interest in this application and for all that you have done and for the communities if you can just say a few words. >> thank you. supervisors, my name is tim (inaudible) and i am one of the owners and we are requested a public convenience for necessity for the transfer of a type 48 liquor license. it is going to be a cocktail lounge and dance bar with occupantcy of approximately 250. a little bit of history and this has been for over 75 years and throughout the vast majority of the history as a bar and a place of entertainment has not been a problem in the neighborhood it was the site of the first day bar in the castro in the 80s and 90 it was a popular bar called the detower and the nightclub trigger and we have designed it from the start to really try to avoid the problems from trigger which

were mostly noise and crowd management kind of issues and the design is to be more of a warm comfortable space which is a combination of a cocktail lounge that with partitions that can separate out from the dance area so that on monday or tuesday night it can be more warm intimate lounge space and then it can open up on weekends to a larger dance space which the castro has deseeupd and has not enough dance space. we have done a significant amount of out reach for this, starting back in december because we knew about the history of trigger, we want to make sure that we understood the people's concerns and we are able to address them. and we met with dtna the neighborhood association, and the valley association and munsy of over market and castro

and we received support from munsa and another letter of support. and i am not aware of any opposition to our plans and we did a bunch of sound tests in cooperation with the neighbors where we installed sound recording equipment in neighboring properties and really played very loud music to try to stress the space and we received a whole set of recommendations for what we could do to improve the sound containment and all of which that we plan to do as part of the remodel and incorporate a lot of feedback from the neighbors in our designs. and as supervisor weiner said we do have other bars in the castro and we have a strong focus on community events and fund-raisers that all of the bars will continue. and we have a history of working with the neighborhood and the neighbors on the sound issues and reducing crime and all of that is stuff that we feel is really important as part of operating the business

and especially in that mixed use neighborhood like the castro and we want to continue all of that. >> thank you very much. colleagues, any questions? >> thank you. >> we appreciate the very good presentation, now if we could hear from the police department from inspect or fong or keller. >> good afternoon, supervisors, good afternoon to you today. i am inspector fong from the san francisco police department. and pita and tana on behalf of (inaudible) incorporated has filed an application with the department to fund and help the department as it controls to abc and seeking a type 48 permit of license for 2344 to 48 market street and located on the west side between 16th and 17th street from march 2012 to march 2013. that the department will see

salmon, and bbq chicken and flank steak, and all of it, we use a chef called ryan scott who is a legal xhef on television and it has a couple of restaurants in town and his team cooks for us and it comes up and the wine is beer is meant to go home with those meals. and i will not allow my store to become a destination for alcohol. that is not the point. we sell about ten percent of our sales are for beer and wine. >> >> i have had the discussions with the supervisor chiu and
